I've read a lot of reviews and watched several video comparisons. My main concerns are noise and weight of the dryer. You are the only one to do db tests and weigh them, so thank you for that. Very entertaining as well. If you do more, you might want to include demos with people who have longer hair as well.

[@sammistrade]

This is SO in-depth and EXACTLY what I was looking for! Thank you for all the effort and time you put into this 😍

[@TDMStyle]

So glad it was helpful for you!

[@brownboii305]

Loving this video! I like how technical you got with it! Very informative! Makes me wanna get a shark hair dryer. I've been rocking a "hot tools" hair dryer. So far so good. I'm on my second one since the first one I was having weird issues with it getting louder and hotter on its own when I had it on medium heat. Warranty covered it and got a second one. Warranty comes in handy. I believe it has 5 years of it.

[@Shoshone_Pittsburgh]

Awesome review! Thank you for putting in the work! I bought the Shark at Walmart today for 70 bucks. I just used it and was happy with it. I would never spend the price for the Dyson... so it's nice to know they are comparable. Thank you!!

[@dianehillman1]

This was VERY informative for me. Thank you for all that info! I am going to purchase the Shark Dryer. Love all the cool tools!

[@TDMStyle]

Happy to help out! Thanks for watching!

[@Ophius]

I don't even blow-dry but I enjoyed hearing what you thought about them. If anything, now I know if I want a luxury hair dryer, Dyson is not the only option!

[@amymatulis2682]

I have had two Dyson dryers die in the last 4 years, the latest happened yesterday, and it is out of warranty. No option to send it in for repair either, that is how I ended up here. What a fabulous review, thank you! I surprised even myself by watching all twenty-two minutes of it, but you were giving such great comparisons, I could not stop! And though I have loved my Dyson, I don't know if I can swallow throwing away another $400+ dollars on a third Dyson dryer. I can do it, but I don't think I should. I'm going to give the Shark a try and hope I don't hate it.

[@TDMStyle]

Sheesh, I'm sorry to hear that you've had two Dysons die like that. I guess I've been lucky that my second one has been going strong. I super appreciate the kind words though, and if you decide to go for the Shark, I hope you enjoy it! It's really a great competitor for the price (especially if you use my discount code lol). Seriously though, I appreciate you!

[@isabelhj]

Agree with you I got for my Mother and is out of warranty so I will buy the Shark for her.

[@Poeticdyme]

The difference in dry time for longer, curly hair using diffusers is probably due to each dryer having different diffuser designs. Shark's diffuser probably allows for more air flow.

[@okteri]

I like the gentle scalp attachment. It really softens the air flow. Bought the original Dyson and returned it. Made my hair feel like straw. Bought it again with the gentle air attachment. It was a game changer.

[@TDMStyle]

Interesting! Thanks for the info.

[@nunisnowden]

very thorough! thank you!

[@ginakearney4146]

Ordered the Shark on a Fri and it came up today (Wednesday). Happy with that shipping time! Looking forward to trying it tomorrow.

[@TDMStyle]

Great video... I'm deciding between buying another dyson (mine cut out just as my 2 year warranty ended only used once per week too and Dyson could only offer a discount for a new one!) And the Shark for its diffuser. I've long curly hair. Swaying towards the Dyson but the fear of it breaking again (a common criticism across the board on most reviews) is off putting 🙈

@@TDMStyle Thanks!

[@cdyana1157]

First of all, this review was hilarious😛. I’m still debating. I’ve read nothing but good things about the Dyson hair dryer. The only negative I’ve read is the price. Haven’t seen to much about the Shark so I decided to pop on and watch a few videos on it. I wished the Shark came with a wide tooth comb attachment. I don’t know I will probably end up getting the Dyson.

[@TDMStyle]

Thanks! I do really like the brush attachment that the Shark comes with, so that may work for you. But, with that being said, as a Dyson owner of a few years, I do love that thing. It no joke did change my life when I first got it, haha

[@suzannetaylor6285]

I bought both, to me they were identical! Save the cash and your hair and get the Shark!

[@alyshawashington9600]

Amazing comparison! Thank you for making this video! How is your Shark holding up these days?

[@TDMStyle]

Thanks! The Shark is still doing great! My wife uses it all the time.

[@rgj406]

Thank you

[@lilluu7]

Thank you for the thorough review! Which one would recommend for a hair with lots of flyaways (post baby situation)?

[@TDMStyle]

Personally I prefer the Dyson, but both are great for smoothing flyaways!

[@sineadwalsh8429]

Your video was great, I have just purchased the shark waiting for it to arrive, as I have the air wrap which I thought I'd get away with as a hairdryer, but unfortunately can't use it as just a hairdryer takes to long. So I hope the shark is good

[@TDMStyle]

I hope you enjoy it!

[@BlueGrey2473]

I got the Salon Guy hair dryer when it was first released. Less than a quarter the price of the Dyson and looks almost exactly the same. Now I'm interested in how it holds up against these two performance-wise.

[@TDMStyle]

Got one of those coming in the mail soon!

[@jon2xu]

Should you add clay, forming cream, grooming cream, defining paste ect... before or after blow drying?

[@TDMStyle]

You can experiment with both, but for me personally I like to only use stuff like smoothing serum and sea salt spray before blow drying, and clay/paste/etc after.

[@shank3524]

Great review… I am still in two minds with the Dyson with my hair type as retaining moisture is important with products applied before for a soft blow dried smooth finished. I’ve seen a few comparison and written reviews, where some have said the Dyson actually makes their hair feel more stripped of moisture than their usual hair dryers, not as smooth etc, wondering if anyone has experienced that?

[@TDMStyle]

Thanks! I have a coarse wavy natural hair texture, so I feel you on the importance of retaining moisture and smoothing for sure! I have never really experienced that issue. The very first time I used my Dyson (after only having used various cheap hair dryers previously), it did feel a bit "weird" - hard to describe, but how fast it dried and the feeling of the air flow just took a few days of getting used to since it's so different from a standard dryer. But, with that being said, I have never felt like it stripped moisture or anything. My hair always feels super silky after drying with it.

[@shank3524]

@@TDMStyle thank you so much for replying I really appreciate it... Am taking the plunge to get one... Anything to minimize heat damage.

[@denisemuller8418]

What is your opinion on the shark flexstyle compared to the dyson airwrap?

[@TDMStyle]

I haven’t used either of those so unfortunately I can’t help out there. Sorry!

[@fdia6154]

In my case I have the same issue happen to me, it just shut down for no reason and never worked again. they did not even offered to look at it.

[@TDMStyle]

Sorry to hear that. When I was on the phone with support, they gave me an address to mail mine to. If this happened to you recently I’d say call again.

[@fdia6154]

@@TDMStyle I tried again this time I sent them this video, they said they will escalate my case to customer relations. Let’s wait and see.

[@kimbelford9932]

I found the shark at Costco for 179. I own the dyson supersonic and airwrap already but I picked up the shark at the Costco price for travel because my days of traveling with 500.00 hair tools are over.

[@mlwelter]

How do you like the shark?

[@kimbelford9932]

@Meesh LW I like the shark hyperair performance wise however it is a little weighty compared to the dyson so for that reason I favor my dyson overall

[@cosmosk8s]

Pro model has a longer cord and better filter and I think when I purchased mine with my license I got 150$ off

[@TDMStyle]

Thanks for the info!

[@illbot789]

Hey, the coupon code for the shark says that that it is not a valid code….did it change?

[@TDMStyle]

Nope - they're still active until January, just gotta make sure you use the correct code for the specific bundle.

[@reneeboyd80]

I don't like that the air flow is on the bottom of the Dyson where your hand is because you can cover that up which will cause overheating.

[@TDMStyle]

Not really possible to be honest. If your hand is covering the intake, you would immediately know. There’s no way you would hold it there long enough to cause overheating.

[@reneeboyd80]

@@TDMStyle , I've been watching several videos trying to decide which I want to get and I'm just seeing a lot of people talking about how their Dyson stopped working after a year or two. Wonder what is causing that because for the price that shouldn't be happening.

[@TDMStyle]

@@reneeboyd80 In my case it was a faulty sensor, so it thought it was overheating when it was not. Dyson replaced it for free and I have not had the problem since, so I would imagine they probably updated that component in the current versions to alleviate that issue.

[@7milesdavis]

Can the nozzle on the shark be rotated? Or is it locked horizontally?

[@TDMStyle]

It can be rotated!

[@leatherneck4life]

Without attachments which one blows stronger on high?

[@marcuslucarelli2329]

A MAJOR MAJOR drawback for the shark is it's difficult to clean and tends to have a short life. I've been sent 3 from sharks and they start out amazing. But they progressively lose power and mine has a problem of shorting. All 3 of them did actually.. :(

[@TDMStyle]

Sorry to hear you're having issues! I've been using mine consistently for about a year now and have not run into any problems.

[@fiftyshadesofurban]

Karats measure the purity of the gold. And just FYI karat is a weird thing. For diamonds karat is a whole different thing, it measures the weigh. But 28 karat gold is pure gold. The lower the number gets the more impurities, but typically it's a stronger metal. 24 Karat gold is, IIRC, an alloy of gold made with just enough other metals to make it the most ideal gold karat rating for jewelry in terms of balancing gold purity with strength, because pure solid 100% gold is a soft metal and is not really the best metal to make jewelry out of because it can get damaged easily. I don't know what they mix the gold with. 23.75 karat seem very very weird number and it's definitely gold plated and not really made of gold or it would be something more like $2000.

[@TDMStyle]

Thanks for this! Interesting stuff, and yeah, I figured 23.75 was just an oddball either way haha

I just looked today, 1/22/23, and tge shark only has a 2 year warranty on both bundles 😢. The smaller is $229 and the larger bundle is $249. The Dyson is $429 for all colors including Prussian blue with the case and the professional version is $479.

That's a bummer that they changed the premium warranty. But at least they extended my discount codes until June, so you can still save some decent bucks if you decide to go with the Shark!

I got my Dyson May, 2020; it suddenly stopped working March, 2021. It would turn on and then shut off in about 15 seconds. I think it’s the thermostat. They sent another one. That stopped working suddenly in December, 2022. So, out of warranty and $400 wasted. I won’t buy another!!

[@9whilenine]

I had my Dyson for four and a half years and the same thing happened to me. I threw it out and bought a Shark because I didn’t want to spend $400 again. Shark is not the same whatsoever. The airflow is not as powerful and that stupid attachment sucks. My hair did not look the same after, no matter what I tried. FYI my hair idk long with a slight wave. Ended up returning it and now I’m looking for a third option. :(

I personally would never by any Dyson product. Here in the UK it’s a political thing. James Dyson actively campaigned for the UK to leave the European Union (and then promptly relocated the company HQ to Singapore when Brexit happened). He’s corrupt and right wing and I would never give his company one penny of my money. I have a Shark cordless vacuum cleaner and I also own this Shark hairdryer and absolutely love both.
